Kaduna businessman drags ex fiancee’s father to court, demands dowry refund A businessman, Nasiru Dayyabu, on Wednesday, dragged the father of his ex-fiance, Mallam Sani Direba, to Shari’a Court II sitting at Magajin Gari, Kaduna over N260,000 dowry. The complainant had joined Direba in the suit against two brothers demanding a refund of N250, 000 dowry and N10,000 introduction money he paid to marry his daughter. Represented by his counsel, Mr Sani Sunusi, the complainant told the court that he sent his people from Karaye, Kano State to Kaduna in 2025, to seek for the defendant’s daughter’s hand in marriage. “We paid the dowry and the introduction money (kudin gausuwa) and were waiting for them to set a date for the wedding,” he said. “Unfortunately, the lady’s father called to inform us that they have cancelled the marriage.” The counsel said the complainant had asked for the refund of his money since Sept. 2025 but all the efforts he made proved abortive.

 Death of my Police aide must be avenged – APC candidate, Okpebholo vows


Senator Monday Okpebholo, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, for the September 21, 2024 governorship election in Edo State has demanded justice for his Police orderly who was killed by suspected political thugs on Thursday in Benin City.

DAILY POST reports that the Police orderly identified as Inspector Akor Onu was killed after leaving the Benin airport premises on arrival from Abuja with Senator Okpebholo and Philip Shaibu, the now-reinstated Deputy Governor of the state.

Recall that Deputy Governor Philip Shaibu was on March 8, 2024, impeached by the Edo State House of Assembly, he was, however, on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, reinstated by Justice Omotosho of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.

It appears, however, that his reinstatement has ruffled some feathers and angered some groups of persons who allegedly engineered an attack, during which Inspector Onu was killed.

In a condolence message, the APC governorship candidate noted that he would not rest until the perpetrators of the unprovoked brutal attack on him leading to the cruel and violent killing of Inspector Akor Onu are brought to justice.

A statement signed by Godswill Inegbe, Legislative Aide to Senator Monday Okpebholo on Media & Communication, in Benin City on Friday, said, the Senator empathized with the injured members of his convoy receiving treatments in various hospitals in the state.

According to him, following the brutal attack on the convoy of Senator Monday Okpebholo by Edo State Security Network and State thugs at the exit gate of the Benin Airport on Thursday, Senator Okpebholo has expressed sadness, condoling with the family of the killed policeman during the unprovoked attack.

“He noted that he will not rest until the perpetrators of the unprovoked brutal attack on him leading to the cruel and violent killing of Inspector Akor Onu are brought to justice.

“In the same vein, the Senator empathizes with the injured members of his convoy receiving treatment in various hospitals in Benin City.

“Senator Okpebholo in a condolence message on Friday morning in Benin City through his Media Aide, Godswill Inegbe, demands justice for the slain policeman, noting that he will not rest until the perpetrators of the unprovoked brutal attack on him leading to the cruel and violent killing of Inspector Akor Onu are brought to justice.

“I am saddened and heartbroken about the tragic killing of Inspector Akor Onu. He was a good policeman, one of the finest in the Nigeria Police Force.

“Inspector Onu was unreservedly committed to his assigned duty, and due to his exceptional commitment and effective policing we became friends for over 12 years”, he said.

Okpebholo assured the bereaved family of Inspector Akor Onu that the brutal killing of their breadwinner would not be swept under the carpet by any guise.

He, however, prayed for the repose of the soul of the officer and speedy recovery for the injured.
